Factors that Differentiate Premium Vinyl Siding
Bigger, better lock - A large lock is added insurance that
panels will stay locked, withstand a higher wind load and stay where they’re
supposed to – on your house. And for contractors or the do-it-yourself
homeowner, the larger lock also makes installation easier because the doubled
nail hem reduces the chance of hard nailing. Plus, the larger lock makes the
panel stronger and therefore easier to handle.

Greater panel thickness - A thicker panel lays flatter, hides
imperfections in the wall, spans depressions, and is more impact resistant, so
it stands up to hail and other impact damage.
Deeper panel profile - A deeper butt height means a more rigid
panel that can mask imperfections in a wall, contribute to a panel lying
flatter on the wall, and improving the aesthetics of the home exterior with an
enhanced shadow line. Plus, the deeper profile provides higher wind resistance
and makes the panel stronger and easier to install.
More color options - Consumers want color choices and premium
products deliver the options they’re looking for when creating a unique home
exterior.
More emboss options - Consumers want a choice of textures to
complement their overall home exterior design, which premium products deliver.
More profile choices - Consumers want a choice of profiles to
complement their overall home exterior design, which premium products deliver.
Long length option - One of the primary stigmas, associated
with vinyl siding, is the overlapping of panels. The advantage of long length
panels is the minimizing of overlaps, contributing to a seamless appearance and
cleaner lines.
